Oracle BI Publisher 11g is tightly-integrated with the Oracle Fusion Middleware Security architecture. It shares the security model of Weblogic, which is configured to be used by Enterprise Manager. The BI Publisher report adheres to the Enterprise authentication security model. This model's authentication is repository-based which in-turn uses the Oracle database for authentication.
The Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS) application roles, namely EMBIViewer, EMBIPAuthor, EMBIPScheduler, and EMBIPAdministrator, create a hierarchical security model for access to BI Publisher.
This recipe describes the steps to be followed to grant or revoke the OPSS application roles using the WLST command to Cloud Control Administrator.
